WOW, the NMRA show has made for a big thread. Speaking of thread... Shirts/Hats/etc. I vote for shirts. I agree with Tom M.--shirts are more readily identifiable at a distance, and all the same color is appropriate too. If you mix and match, no one (...) (24 years ago, 9-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

Wow, great stuff. I liked everything, but I also must add that I LOVED your diner. Every once and a while when I see a model I exclaim "I wish I had thought of that!"

Thank you, James. Your station was obviously an influence on mine and when I add to the interior, I am sure the similarities will be more obvious.
